The Marlins have been pretty bad with their hitting and pitching this season, as they rank towards the bottom of the MLB in runs scored and team ERA. Miami is starting Trevor Rogers, who has some ugly numbers on the season, but has actually been decent recently. Philadelphia is going with Zack Wheeler, who has been very good for most of the season. The Phillies are great at home this year and they have a big advantage on the mound. My Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins prediction is for the Phillies to win by at least two runs.
